Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.

ajch-35305 Well, what can I say about Australia's Lost Gold? It is a spectacular real life treasure hunt set in the vast Australian outback. From the start, I was quite interested in the possibility of a massive reef of gold hidden from civilization. The director of the film, Luke Walker, sets out searching for clues to help Bob, the son of the famous Harold Lasseter, in his quest to find his father's gold. Constantly throughout the film, their quest is slandered by people who said that Harold was a liar. The film takes many twists and turns, and just when all hope seems lost, a new clue is uncovered. In the outback they meet a tribe of Aborigines that guide them as well as tell them of their accounts with Harold Lasseter many years ago. The director does an incredible job in preserving the Aboriginal culture, and taking care not to disturb what they hold dear. The wonderful vistas of the Australian landscape transports the viewer into Luke and Bob's world, rooting for them to find the gold.

Joseph Frost In the central Australian desert, one man's legacy lives on like the sand on the hills and the bones of creatures long gone. That man is Harold Lasseter. Harold discovered ("supposedly") a reef of gold in central Australia worth billions. No one believed him, and he died before the gold could be found. His son, Bob, never knew his father; he left when he was 6 years old, never to be seen again. Even so, Harold left a mark on his son that would shape his entire life. Bob has spent years trying to find that elusive gold in order to clear his father's name. Director Luke Walker joins him in that quest in Australia's Lost Gold. The story has surprises at every turn; I found myself enthralled in the mystery of that long, lost gold. Highly recommend for anyone that loves adventure.

SophiaWhite232 Australia's Lost Gold has officially been added to my list of favorite independent films! I love independent films like this that intertwine culture and history with a great story line. It's exciting to be able to explore and learn about different cultures through film. Audiences have the opportunity to visit places around the world that they may never have the opportunity to visit. Australia's Lost Gold explores the famous Australian legend of undiscovered gold in the Central Australian Desert. I don't know many people who get the opportunity to visit Australian deserts in their lifetime but as I was watching the film, I felt like I was there. Throughout the documentary, director Luke Walker does an outstanding job of immersing his audience into the Australian culture. From personal interviews with townspeople to the interactions with Aborigine's from the desert, you really feel like you get an understanding of the people that live there. Thanks to Luke's superb directing, the film is packed with great shots of the country's landscape that allows the audience to see what "down under" really means. In addition to the beautiful culture portrayed in the film, the story-line is just as intriguing. It's an exciting plot that takes you on the quest for not just undiscovered gold, but the truth. I definitely recommend watching it if you're looking for a great new movie to add to your list.

Levi Saulnier Watching Australia's Lost Gold is an inspiring and joyful experience. Director Luke Walker expertly paces Bob Lasseter's journey to find the mother lode of gold in a way that sets him apart from other documentarians. As Bob Lasseter searches endlessly for bits and pieces of his father's legacy, the attention draws closer and closer on this mystery and the history of his family. All of this is accompanied by breathtaking cinematography of Australian desert landscapes. Furthermore, the editing creates such a dramatic slow burn effect that audiences can find themselves reviewing the statements, rumors, and pieces of the tale just as much as Bob Lasseter himself. As the trek for Lasseter's Reef goes on, the will to find out the truth gets stronger in not just Bob Lasseter, but the director and audience; which is the biggest compliment I can give this film. In a world filled with big budget action films out every other week, it is refreshing to come across a softhearted story of human nature and wonder.
